We are so pleased to announce a new community initiative! The Dalhousie Community Club is “a neighbourly club where we do fun things!”

Once a month, join us for fun, conversation and exploration. The club is for anyone 18+.

There is no limit to what we might do: sometimes it will be an interesting lecture, or a fun activity or a creative craft. Always, it will be a chance to connect with your neighbours and have fun!

Activities will be free or cheap for DCA members.  Guests will be charged $5-$10 depending on the activity. Proceeds will go towards club and community activities (like the Community Pantry we’re trying to implement).

To register, click on the registration link below. To ask a question or suggest an activity for the Community Club, please email engagement@dalhousiecalgary.ca

We’d also love to hear from you if we can help make an activity more accessible to you.

Spill the Beans: Managing Your Food Waste

Did you know that more than 60% of food is thrown away in Canada and could have been eaten? Learning simple food planning tricks and ways to store and preserve food can make a difference. Join us for a one-hour workshop to learn more about:

  • ways we can reduce food wastage and how it is beneficial in reducing household costs and minimizing global warming
  • easy food planning​
  • storing and preserving food
  • where to buy affordable produce and support local farmers
  • food labels and what they mean

This program is possible thanks to the generous support of the Calgary Foundation, The Chawkers Foundation and the City of Calgary.
